According to www.wrightsvillebeachmagazine.com/article.asp?aid=202&iid=37&sud=27 an online version of a beach magazine from somewhere in the Carolinas the checkered flag marks a transition point, in this case from Surfing to No Surfing. Scroll down to the article Peaceful Waters: "Surf zones on Wrightsville Beach have finally come to a peaceful resolution with both surfers and swimmers. The new regulations create no-surfing zones within 200 yards of each of the 13 lifeguard stands on the beach strand, with swimming allowed on all areas of the beach. ... Buoys and a flag system used by the International Lifesaving Association will mark the zones. Checkered flags indicate a change in the use of the area and will be placed at the end of no-surfing zones. Yellow flags with a black ball will mean a no-surfing zone."
